NEW: Report an Absence with ParentVUE

FCPS is excited to announce an important update beginning with the start of the 2024-25 school year.  Parents and caregivers will have the option to submit their student’s attendance directly through ParentVUE starting the first day of school, August 19, 2024.  This new feature aims to streamline the attendance reporting process and enhance communication between parents and schools. This change will make it more convenient for parents and schools to manage students' attendance while ensuring the highest level of security.

ParentVUE offers a more secure and reliable platform for managing students' attendance information.  ParentVUE will replace the current Attendance Forms, which will be discontinued at the end of the 2023-24 school year.  Schools must remove links and instructions related to attendance forms from their websites by July 1, 2024.
